I want to display a list of repeatable field posts that are specific to the logged in user and then have links for each of them to edit them. How do I do this?

Hello,

There isn't such kind of built-in feature within Repeatable Group.

As a workaround, you can try with one-to-many relationship, for example:
1) Setup two post types:
- Parent post type
- Child post type, enable option "Author"
Setup one-to-many relationship between "Parent post type" and "Child post type"

2) Setup parent posts and Child posts, setup different user as the author of child posts.

In a single "Parent post", you can setup post view:
- Query child posts
- Filter by:
a) post type relationship between "Parent post type" and "Child post type"
b) post's author is current logged-in user
- And in view's loop, display a Toolset edit form link
So each user will be able to edit their own child posts.

There is no option to add a form edit link to a View. I get this message:

"Create a new Content Template that will include the editing form. You can start from scratch or copy the template you use to display the content and modify it."
